No I have the faux tank and everything else for the aspencade. I'm restoring and painting it so when I want to change the std out for the aspy fairing, it'll be painted and ready to go. Plus if I ever wanted to sell the bike, not that I could ever see why, I can put the old fairing back on. I...

. I've been restoring this gl1200 and while the aspencade is a nice looking bike, I'm under 25 and therefore not old enough to have the sense to sport full fairing(It'll probably hit me while riding down the interstate). I'm restoring the aspencade fairing to match the rest for winter riding...

It wasn't until it lit up the yard like a qbeam, blinded me, and popped a new 100watt at the same time, that the...

Improvising on the fly. Working in the shop wouldn't be nowhere near as fun without it.

Yeah I'm working like crazy to get an aspencade down to a standard in time for late spring.
